Beyond the music, why not plan a full night in the Greater Ashmont Main Street district? All ticket holders for the August 10 show are eligible to receive 15% off their pre-show dinner check at Tavolo Ristorante (exclusive of alcohol, tax, and gratuity, as required by law). Simply show your ticket confirmation (electronic or paper print out) to your server to take advantage of this offer.

Veteran Boston-area 7-string guitarist Gerry Beaudoin was inspired in his youth by the sensibilities of Bucky Pizzarelli and the bluesy swing of Kenny Burrell, and has spent a career performing & recording with everyone from Pizzarelli to blues guitarist Ronnie Earl to J. Geils band namesake Jay Geils to newgrass mandolin innovator David Grisman. These days he’s focused on playing acoustic jazz originals and classics with his trio. For this show, the trio will feature his son Gerard Beaudoin on vibraphone and Neil Patton on bass. For even more information, see the July 27 article in the Dorchester Reporter.
